The Suorin Air is a highly portable all-in-one mouth-to-lung vaporizer. Its footprint is smaller than that of a credit card, and it’s one of the thinnest vaporizers on the market. Suorin made waves with the Suorin Drop, and they’re back at it again with this new, innovative design.
Considering how small this vape pod is, the cloud production is impressive. It isn’t a cloud-chasing device by any means, but it’ll be more than enough for those that prefer smaller devices like the Juul.

What’s in the Suorin Air Starter Kit?

The Suorin vape pod is a great little unit, and the starter kit comes with everything the user will need to get started. The Suorin Air kit doesn’t have a lot of extra accessories, but that’s nothing to complain about for such an affordable price.

The Suorin Air starter kit comes with the following:

  • Suorin Air
  • An Atomizer
  • A USB charging cable
  • A Warning card
  • And User manual

Suorin Air Build Quality

When holding the Suorin Air, it has a very premium feel. Shaking it causes the slightest rattle, but it still feels well-constructed and durable. The brushed finish of the battery section looks fantastic, and the unit comes in seven colors: black, gold, silver, blue, green, and gunmetal.
The atomizer section also feels durable but tends to leak after a few refills. When this happens, it’s time to get a new replacement cartridge. The replacement cartridge fits snugly inside the battery section, making it very compact.
Overall, the build quality is excellent. It’s hard to recommend a drop test with this one, but it should last a while with regular use and adequate care.

How Long Does the Suorin Air Battery Last?

The battery is 400mah, which is a little more than most vaporizers of this size offer. However, it should provide the average user with at least a full day of use. Some people say that the battery can last even for two days.
However, it all depends on how often the device is used. In addition, the pod has a passthrough function that allows to vape while charging.

How to Use

In terms of maintenance, the Suorin vape kit isn’t too demanding. However, the atomizer is disposable, and the average user will need to replace it every week or so. Therefore, it’s very important to keep the metal pins on the top of the battery and the bottom of the atomizer clean.
This can be done with a q tip and a small amount of isopropyl alcohol. Be sure to thoroughly dry the areas that come in contact with the isopropyl alcohol before using the unit.

How To Fill The Suorin Air Pod

  • Remove the rubber piece covering the atomizer’s bottom to fill the device.
  • Place the dropper or bottle tip inside the previously covered area and begin to fill.
  • Once the atomizer is full, replace the rubber piece and allow it to sit for several minutes.

This will prevent dry hits and result in better flavor.

After a few minutes, the device should be ready to vape. To use the device, simply pull from the mouthpiece in the top corner. Many pull-activated pod vapes tend to have a delay, but the vape pod is highly responsive. It produces vapor the moment the user takes a hit.
A light on the bottom of the unit serves a couple of purposes. It lights up when the user hits the device and will turn red when the battery is almost dead. When the red light comes on, there are a few pulls left.

Can you use regular e-juice in Suorin Air?

This vape holds 2ml of e-liquid, and its mouth-to-lung inhaling style makes it perfect for nicotine salt.
Usually, nicotine salt is used with vaporizers that don’t have much vapor output. However, using nicotine salt in a vape is a very satisfying and unique experience. This all-in-one vape manages to produce extremely smooth, flavorful vapor. It even utilizes an open system, which can be used with any e-liquid.

Devices like the Suorin Air

Suorin Drop

Suorin Drop Blue

The Suorin Drop is the predecessor of the Suorin vape and is very similar. It’s a little smaller but holds less e-liquid. This means that filling will be more frequent.
The only other major difference is the shape of the device. Again, this device is neither better nor worse than the Air. It’s just different. The Drop has a unique shape and aesthetic, but that’s not for everyone.

Kandypens Rubi

KandyPens Rubi x3

In size and shape, the Rubi is very similar to the Juul. It’s a rectangular shape, and the metal design is compact and feels very premium. However, it’s more like the Suorin Air in terms of functionality. It has an open system just like it, so it can utilize any e-liquid.
Those that want the versatility in an even smaller form factor will appreciate this unit from Kandypens.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How long do Suorin Air pods last?

    A pod can last up to one week before the flavor starts dropping off. But these are subject to many different factors.
    Many people can get longer pod life, even lasting up to two weeks, but it depends on how much e-juice is in the replacement cartridge, what voltage it is vaped, and what kind of juice (nicotine salt, high VG, or high PG) is used.

  • How to clean a Suorin Air pod?

    The first thing you need to do is remove the pod from the device. You can do this by holding the power button until the “power off” message appears.
    Then carefully pull the pod out of the device. After switching off, you can start cleaning. Users can do it with a small amount of isopropyl alcohol. If the air pod Suorin burned, there are several ways to clean it. Users can use a vacuum cleaner or boiling water to fix it.

  • How do you know when the Suorin Air is fully charged?

    The Suorin Air has a series of five LEDs that will all be illuminated when fully charged. However, as the battery life decreases, more LEDs will go dark, signaling when the battery needs to be charged.

  • Does Suorin Air get you high?

    The device does not get you high. The pod and coils inside are incompatible with any narcotic other than nicotine-based e-juice.

  • How many cigarettes are in Suorin pods?

    There are no cigarettes in pods. This is because the pods do not come pre-filled with nicotine salt, and users decide what strength of e-juice they want to vape.
    Therefore, comparing how many cigarettes are in the e-juice is impossible to make.

  • What is Suorin Air used for?

    It is a pod mod for users that prefer a mouth-to-lung vaping experience. The Air comes with two pods with different coils (one rated at 0.7ohms and the other at 1.0ohms), so users can choose which style of vaping they prefer.
    The Air is also more suited for nicotine salts e-juice with an even 50/50 VG/PG ratio.

  • Juul vs Suorin: which is better?

    The Juul and Suorin Air are two very different devices. They are air-activated and have no buttons, but the Juul is a pod system that uses pre-filled pods, so users have no choice in what e-juice they can use.
    On the other hand, the Air uses refillable pods to fill them with any e-juice they want. It also has a larger battery than the Juul.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek, stylish design
  • Small footprint
  • Impressive vapor production
  • Good battery life
  • Durable

Cons

  • Leaks
  • Requires frequent atomizer replacements

Is the Suorin Air Worth it?

The only big drawback of the Suorin vape is the leaking problem, which can be avoided by properly replacing the disposable atomizer. Still, the leaking can become annoying, especially with how frequently this atomizer needs to be changed.
However, the value is still great. Suorin is offering a sleek, well-designed unit that produces flavorful, smooth clouds for such a cost-efficient. It’s a hard deal to beat. This is an excellent unit with a couple of flaws.
Whether or not those flaws are a dealbreaker depends on the individual buyer. Those that don’t mind replacing their atomizers every week will appreciate this device for what it is.

My way of understanding the significance of vaping came not only through the disruption of smoking but its effects on society as a whole. Now I bring people to vaping and bring vaping to people. I love using new gear, writing in-depth reviews and generally nerding out about vaping to like-minded people.
